The AD9834 is a 75 MHz low power DDS device capable of
producing high performance sine and triangular outputs. It also
has an on-board comparator that allows a square wave to be
produced for clock generation. Consuming only 20 mW of power
at 3 V makes the AD9834 an ideal candidate for power-sensitive
applications.
Capability for phase modulation and frequency modulation is
provided. The frequency registers are 28 bits; with a 75 MHz clock
rate, resolution of 0.28 Hz can be achieved. Similarly, with a 1 MHz
clock rate, the AD9834 can be tuned to 0.004 Hz resolution.
Frequency and phase modulation are affected by loading registers
through the serial interface and toggling the registers using
software or the FSELECT pin and PSELECT pin, respectively.
The AD9834 is written to using a 3-wire serial interface. This
serial interface operates at clock rates up to 40 MHz and is
compatible with DSP and microcontroller standards.
The device operates with a power supply from 2.3 V to 5.5 V.
The analog and digital sections are independent and can be run
from different power supplies, for example, AVDD can equal
5 V with DVDD equal to 3 V.
The AD9834 has a power-down pin (SLEEP) that allows
external control of the power-down mode. Sections of the
device that are not being used can be powered down to
minimize the current consumption. For example, the DAC can
be powered down when a clock output is being generated.
The part is available in a 20-lead TSSOP.
